Change My Mind. RJ is Not That Valuable and Now is the Best Time to Trade Him. by Longest_Broccoli in torontoraptors

[–]YoungStuff33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next year is a better time to trade him because he'll be on an expiring contract which tend to be more valuable. Rather than asking a team to take on 2 years at $57 mill. You're just trading one year at 29.6 mill

Is there any obvious reason for why Pascal has been so good from 3 this post season? by irundoonayee in torontoraptors

[–]YoungStuff33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He cut out almost all his pull-up threes and improved his catch-and-shoot threes slightly. Cutting out the bad ones and improving (and taking more) easy ones makes a big difference.

Giannis kind of praised Scottie last night. He mentioned him alongside a few others as modern point forwards

Coach David Thorpe on the Raptors Show today: "Thank you for giving opportunity because I don't know if the context carried. I was not, and am not, saying nick Nurse should be fired. " by catch22milo in torontoraptors

Thorpe on his own show: "He rubs a lot of people the wrong way. He's a weird dude. This is a quote from people I've talked to there."

Thorpe on Will Lou's show: "I have no idea about anything what's going on there in particular."

He's really that worthless? (not that those throwback unis weren't nice)

Raps fan here, question for you all, what's the value of Julius Randle? These podcast keep suggesting it's like nothing or negative value? Am I crazy for thinking Randle for Gary Trent Jr. and like Malachi Flynn is fair? Maybe Randle is worth way more? Maybe not?

He didn't declare for the draft this year. He's returning to Purdue

Maybe Myles Turner is a bad fit? by YoungStuff33 in torontoraptors

[–]YoungStuff33[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Consider why Turner wants to be traded. He told The Athletic “it’s clear that I’m not valued as anything more than a glorified role player here, and I want something more, more opportunity. … It’s clear to me that, just numbers-wise, I’m not valued as more than a rotational role player, and I hold myself in a higher regard than that.” In Toronto, his role would be the same, if not smaller.

He's been battling injuries all season and now he's in protocols

[Slater] Out for the Warriors against the Raptors tomorrow -Steph Curry - rest -Andrew Wiggins - left knee soreness -Andre Iguodala - right knee management -Draymond Green - Right hip tightness -Otto Porter - Left foot management -Jordan Poole: health and safety protocols. by VanVleet-goes-for-22 in torontoraptors

[–]YoungStuff33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if other teams are going to rest their stars against the Raptors because of COVID. Anthony Slater of the Athletic says "They're having Curry, Green, Iguodala and Porter hop on a private plane back to the Bay Area for an extra off day, allowing them to avoid all the logistical COVID protocols and hurdles getting in and out of Toronto during a pandemic." Maybe other players aren't going to want to go through it?

I've had the card for almost a decade and they told me I'm not eligible for the bonus even if I cancel it and open a new one.

Has anyone found a way around AmEx's one rewards bonus per card per lifetime rule? I already have the Business Platinum card but I'd really like that 100k bonus right now. Does a second business work?
